People like to use oak now, but I think that too is a trend that will pass. It's also a question of how often the floor is used and whether you can tolerate seeing the scars on the wood floor. However, today you want wood without nicks, and that in itself is difficult to achieve.
If you are happy with scarred flooring, pine, etc. is also possible, there are all lengths and widths. We use Douglas fir lock boards, there was a good place to buy them, and we lay them everywhere, maybe even in the bathroom. I've had solid pine boards for 30 years, and I don't see why it shouldn't work. Today, there are also great options for custom color.
